Watch over me

Nina LaCour delivers another emotional knockout with Watch Over Me , the hotly-anticipated follow-up to the Printz Award-winning We Are Okay . Mila is used to being alone. Maybe thats why she said yes to the opportunity: living in this remote place, among the flowers and the fog and the crash of waves far below. But she hadnt known about the ghosts. Newly graduated from high school, Mila has aged out of the foster care system. So when shes offered a job and a place to stay at a farm on an isolated part of the California Coast, she immediately accepts. Maybe she will finally find a new home, a real home. The farm is a refuge, but also haunted by the past traumas its young residents have come to escape. And Milas own terrible memories are starting to rise to the surface.
